Avis is still not willing to risk it while he is still not willing to give up, but no, this won't be like the last time. She's going to make him fall out of love, even if it means playing nice. She'll do whatever it takes to exhaust his feelings for her, give him all of her until he finally decides he had enough. After all, every love story is all about the chase. Affinity 2 of 2.

Sometimes, you do crazy things for the one you love. No matter how mean or absurd it is, gagawin mo pa rin. Kahit na magmukha kang masama. Kahit na sabihin nilang madamot ka. Kahit na alam mong mali. Ika nga nila: "All is fair in love and war." It has no bounds. No rules. So fuck everything, right? Just when Maxwell finally realizes her true feelings for Rush, that's the time when he chooses to leave. No texts. No calls. No goodbye. Not even a single word from him. He just... disappeared. For three years, Grant never left her side-hoping Maxwell will love him again like before. Everything was smoothly sailing until the said devil decided to come back. Mean 2 of 2.

Cliché? Yun yung good girl meets her prince charming, they both fall in love, the antagonist comes along, here comes the up rise, problem solved then insert the happy ending with matching confetti and balloons. Kung hindi happy ang ending? Then wait for the epilogue. Kaumay! Yung mabait laging bida, yung nagpapaawa ang laging pinapanigan at si good girl at prince charming lagi ang nagkakatuluyan. Pero paano kung maging bida ang isang kontrabida? Maxwell is mean but she's willing to be extra mean just to get the guy of her dreams. It had always been Grant for her since she was seven. No matter how many times she cry, no matter how many times she get hurt, and no matter how many times she get beaten down because of Grant-she'll never get tired of loving him. She'll chase him till the ends of the earth. And if someone gets in her way? Simple, she''ll have them taste her hell. Or they could taste Rush's, Grant's cousin, who's also willing to do every mean things for her. Mean 1 of 2.
